To all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that I, LEOPOLD S'rrAssNY, 'a citizen of the United States, residing atNew York, in the .county of `NewYork and State lof New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in -Light-Distributers, of wluch the following is a specification.`

This invention relates to a lamp having a lens or light distributer suspended a suitable distance below the chimney to allow ventilatlon. j The lens is suspended connections either insideor outside the -lam embodying this invention.

globe, such connections or chains bein usually attached inside but in case of a smal globe or when for other reasons the attachment cannot be thus made. the 'suspending -means are applied at thevoutside.

This invention is setl forthl in the following specificationand claims and illustratedl in the annexed drawing, in which:`

Figure 1 represents alvertical section of, a Fig. 2 is a simi ar section of a modification.l Fig, 3

Ishows a detail edge view of a ring.

By means of this invention a lamp such as van inverted incandescentgas or electric llght. has its rays refracted and dispersed downby'means of flexible shown suspended from a protector e' of metal orstrong materlal which prevents the' screws f 'from coming into' contact with or breaking any fragile part such as a glass' chimney g or a shade or obe h.

"The screws are inserted through a ring or crownpart t. The` chimney can be -sli ped or fitted into theprotector and the sliade can be seated on the protector. e

If no protector is employed and the shade .71J is engaged directly by the screws f (Fig. 2)

the flexible connections can be secured to a ring or hooks k between the shade h and the chimney suspended in the shade. v

What I claim as my invention is: 1. A lamp comprising a chimney, a ring shaped protector at the upper' end of said chimney means for connecting the protector to ,thel chimney, a lens below the chimney and flexible connections extending unbro.

kenly from the protector to the lens so as to hold the lensa suitable distance below the chimney to allow ventilation.

2. A` lamp comprising a chimney, a ring shaped protector surrounding the chimney, a crown, there bein apertures in the crown, screwsextending t rough the apertures in `the crown and abutting against the pro- 4 tectorfor clamping the latter to the chlmney, a lens andconnections free from the globe extending unbrokenly from thev rotector to the lens to hold the latter a suita le distance below the chimne T.

In testimony w ereof I have hereunto .set my hand in the presenceof two subscribing witnesses. v
